STOP: If you use GPA-0.5 (aka GnuPP, AFAIK), make sure to generate your=20
keypair (if any) _on the command line_. GPA-0.5 has a nasty bug that will=
=20
result in all non-us-ascii characters encoded invalidly. Don't know if th=
is=20
slipped into the GnuPP release, but I guess so.

Not that it would matter for Greg, but one should be careful when recomme=
nding=20
GPA-0.5.
